Lost Dreamers

We were once lost dreamers,

Who discovered how to fly through the clouds

And swim among the goldfish in the sky.

 

Follow me

You whispered to me

As you grabbed my hand

And pulled me through the stars,

To the hidden world of ours.

 

A place where we could sing with the sirens,

Near the wrecked ships and souls of sailors,

And leave our troubles behind.

 

We used to know how to cast a magic spell

That would turn our worries to dust

But I forgot that long ago

 

We were once lost dreamers,

Who learned to walk along the backs of the waves

And dance among the fairies and crickets in the dead of night.

 

We could leap from one fantasy to the next

Where the sky gleamed with wishes

While we slept underneath the branches of the willow.

 

We shared a never-ending pouch of fairy dust and joy

While we galloped through the field with the elves at our sides.

 

We were once lost dreamers,

You and I.

Do you remember?

Think back to the times when we wrestled with dwarves and dragons

And explored the dark caves of our imagination.

Think back to that time,

My dear old friend,

And dream sweet dreams in heaven.
